What does Buick Excelle code128 mean?
2 Answers
Buick Excelle code128 means the hood is not properly closed. Here is more extended information about the Buick Excelle: 1. Basic Introduction: The Buick Excelle is the fourth model produced on General Motors' latest global platform following the new Regal, new LaCrosse, and Enclave. The older Buick Excelle originated from the Opel Astra and was built on the GM Global DeltaⅡ platform. The all-new Buick Excelle was officially launched on March 2, 2015. 2. Basic Concept: The Excelle not only perfectly interprets the inherent spirited temperament, sharp and tough lines, and driving feel of this five-door coupe but also reflects the talent, wisdom, and bold, decisive style of the new generation of striving youth.
Last time I drove the Excelle, the code 128 also popped up, which is actually the maintenance reminder light! This code is specifically designed to remind you to change the engine oil—Buick's design is quite thoughtful. It usually appears if you haven’t serviced the car for over 5,000 km. No need to panic if the yellow light flashes, but if the red light comes on, don’t drive. The key point is that this reminder light won’t turn off by itself. After changing the oil, you need to manually reset it: Turn off the engine, press and hold the button on the right side of the dashboard, turn the key to the power-on position without starting the engine, and wait for the progress bar to complete. Many car owners assume the light will turn off after an oil change, only to make a wasted trip to the repair shop.
